The XVive U6 system sports a built-in microphone that fits in the palm of your hand and sets up in seconds. For those who prefer a discreet presentation, the transmitter can even be hidden under your clothing. Combine this with high-fidelity 24-bit/48 kHz audio and True Diversity wireless stability, and you have an instant sonic upgrade to all your video productions. The transmitter can be worn in four different ways: two hidden and two visible. If you prefer a clean on-camera look, use the system’s hook + loop fastener mode to hide the transmitter under a jacket or shirt, or simply use the clip and tuck the unit on the underside of your clothing. The two less discreet alternatives include using the clip or hook + loop fasteners to attach the transmitter on top of your clothing. The U6 receiver’s shoe mount allows it to sit comfortably atop your DSLR.

The supplied audio cable sends the sound from the receiver to the camera. Just slide it in, plug it in and turn it on. Connecting to a smartphone is also a breeze, provided you have any necessary adapter to bridge from a 1/8”/3.55 mm plug to your phone’s input. The receiver is so small and light that it can be mounted to the back of your phone (or a tripod) using the supplied hook + loop fasteners, or even a piece of tape. U6 broadcasts a stable wireless signal on the 2.4 GHz band, over an astonishing 90-foot range. The system has four channels to choose from, giving you options in case you encounter conflicts with other wireless devices in the area; and the receiver’s True Diversity design means that it has two antennas instead of one, ensuring a solid connection every time. The latency is imperceptible at only 5 ms, so your voice and your lips will always be in sync. The U6 Compact Wireless Mic System is all you need for easy, reliable, high-quality and budget-friendly voice recording for video.
